Chapter 15: Maintaining Your Library
Monitoring the Library
Element Description
Location The drive coordinate location within the library. For information about location
coordinates, see
Physical SN The serial number of the particular drive.
Logical SN The logical serial number that the library assigns to a drive in a specific
location. This is not the serial number of the particular drive (see Physical SN in
this table). If a drive is replaced by another drive in the same library location,
the logical serial number remains the same. From the host's perspective, the
replacement drive is the same as the original one. If the logical serial number
addressing feature is disabled for the library, Disabled appears in this field.
Vendor The name of the drive vendor.
IO Blade The location of the I/O blade to which the drive is attached. Locations are
indicated by means of a coordinate system. For information about location
coordinates, see
EEB Indicates whether or not the drive is connected to an EEB (Ethernet Expansion
blade).
Only HP LTO-5 or LTO-6 drives can be connected to an EEB.
Note: A drive can be connected to either an I/O Blade or an EEB, not both.
Control Path Reports if a drive is a primary (CP) or a secondary (CPF) drive. The values are
Primary, Secondary, or None. It also reports which drive is currently the active
drive by displaying "(Active)", example "Primary (Active)"."
Data Path Indicates whether data path failover is enabled or disabled.
Failover
Encryption Indicates whether or not encryption is set up as Application Managed or
Library Managed.
Partition Name The name of the partition to which the drive is assigned.
Usage Type Indicates whether the drive is configured as a Standard drive (used for data
read/write) or as aEDLM drive (part of a Library Managed partition for testing
media integrity).
Only LTO-5 or LTO-6 drives can be configured as MeDIA drives.
